Too wet to farm so decided to build a shooting bench. Been paying attention to other benches I've used and had few ideas what I wanted. The biggest issue I have with most benches is the height of the seats in relation to the top. I prefer the table to be high enough so I don't have to hunch over into the rifle. That's especially important with a gun that kicks.
Top is 42" high, seats are 24". Top is 48" wide in the front, 18" between the seats. Table front to back is 51".
The front legs are 4x6, back are 4x4. Rest of the frame is 2x6 with 5/4 decking for the top and seats. All held together with timberlok and grx screws.
Materials list
1 4x6x8
1 4x4x8
6 2x6x8
3 5/4x6x12
Total cost ~$100.00
